In revisiting the most memorable moments of the 55th Grammy Awards, there are several places we can start. Shall we begin with the surprise album of the year victory by Mumford & Sons? Or with the hearty superstar tribute to Levon Helm? Or perhaps with Katy Perry's provocative dress, the most revealing outfit since J. Lo's chest-plunging ensemble (or lack thereof)?

British folk band Mumford & Sons pulled off a surprise victory at the 55th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday night, winning album of the year away from fellow nominees the Black Keys, and fun., who were dominating the night.

Before the nominations were announced last year, Mumford was an early favorite to win music's biggest prize. Its sophomore album, "Babel," had the second-highest week of sales last year according to Billboard, and the band's sweeping, banjo-strumming style paved the way for a lucrative folk renaissance, inspiring other acts like the Lumineers and Phillip Phillips, who've also had big sales successes. | Feb. 11, 2013»Read Full Article(2)

Shoppers at Mayfair this weekend may find the place looking more festive than usual. To celebrate the end of winter and the arrival of Chinese New Year, the mall will host its second Chinese Lunar New Year celebration from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. on Saturday.

The enduring theme in the many collaborations between James Kaplan and the late Fred Alley was friendship, through which others pull us out of ourselves and challenge us to grow.

It's therefore only fitting that Kaplan's latest - a moving show that honors Alley, the creative force behind American Folklore Theatre, in so many ways - is titled "Jimmy Kaplan and Friends." It opened over the weekend in the Sunset Playhouse's Studio Theatre in Elm Grove. | Feb. 10, 2013»Read Full Article
